A continuous assay forEscherichia colityrosine aminotransferase (TATase) that employsLactobacillus delbrueckiissp.bulgaricushydroxyisocaproate dehydrogenase (HO-HxoDH) as a coupling enzyme is described. α-Keto acids, including those formed by TATase-catalyzed transamination ofl-phenylalanine,l-tyrosine,l-tryptophan,l-methionine, andl-leucine, are converted to the corresponding α-hydroxy acids by the auxiliary enzyme. The concomitant reduction of NADH by this enzyme can be followed as a decrease in absorbance at 340 nm. Importantly, HO-HxoDHcatalyzed reduction of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG), a cosubstrate of TATase required to regenerate the pyridoxal-5′-phosphate cofactor of this enzyme from pyridoxamine-5′-phosphate, is a poor substrate and does not interfere with the assay. The kinetic parameters determined for the transamination of phenylalanine by TATase (kcat= 180 s−1,KM (L-Phe)= 0.56 mm,KM (α-KG)= 5 mm) with HO-HxoDH as a coupling enzyme are comparable to those reported in the literature, which were determined by direct monitoring of the formation of phenylpyruvate at 280 nm. This new assay offers the advantages of increased sensitivity and broad substrate specificity.
